One of the things Tom Crean really likes about Indiana's nonconference schedule is that the top-ranked Hoosiers are seeing a lot of contrasting styles.

They saw it earlier this season against Georgetown when they went up against a lineup with four players 6-8 or taller. When you're starting a pair of 6-foot guards in Jordan Hulls and Yogi Ferrell (and 6-foot may be fudging it with Yogi) size can pose some problems.
